Structural Geology in Reservoir Characterization

Covers faulted and fractured reservoirs, particularly in relation to petroleum traps, fluid flow prediction and modelling structurally-heterogeneous reservoirs. The book aims to capture the wide range of rapidly expanding research in this area, which reflects the increasing importance of comprehensive 'structural characterisation' in static reservoir descriptions. The majority of papers address a range of structural geological features, particularly faulted and fractured reservoirs, fault gougeproperties, fault seal potential and fluid flow/simulation modelling in faulted and fractured reservoirs.
